cpan[1]> force install HTML::HTMLDoc

The output you posted, seems not to be the output from your first attempt.
These are the first two sentences in the DESCRIPTION section of the
HTML::HTMLDoc POD:
"This Module provides an OO-interface to the htmldoc programm. To
install this module you have to install the htmldoc program first."
I can't tell if that's the reason why the install failed the first time,
but have you installed the htmldoc program?
To retry, I believe you first need to remove the
HTML-HTMLDoc-0.10-8rfFZS directory.
